RSU to Offer Early Enrollment Day for New Students March 28

High school seniors and transfer students interested in attending Rogers State University in the fall will have the opportunity to enroll early at Early Enrollment Day, to be held at 8:00 a.m. Saturday, March 28, on the RSU campuses in Claremore and Bartlesville.

The free event will be held in the Student Center Ballroom on the RSU campus in Claremore and in the Enrollment Center on the first floor of the Bartlesville campus.

The event is designed to allow new students to complete admission procedures, talk with financial aid counselors, meet one-on-one with a faculty advisor from his or her area of interest, and enroll in classes for the upcoming fall semester, all during a single morning. Breakfast will be available and parents are welcome to accompany their students to the event.

"We have streamlined the process of enrolling so incoming freshmen as well as transfer students will be able to complete all paperwork at one convenient time and location," said Julie Rampey, RSU director of admissions.

New students will learn about the wide variety of bachelor's and associate's degree programs available at RSU, as well as guidance in selecting a major. Participants also will have an opportunity to meet with representatives from RSU student organizations, club and intramural sports programs and other extracurricular activities. Guided tours of the campus will be available all morning.

In addition to enrolling in fall classes, students can enroll in classes for the upcoming summer term if they choose to get a jump on their college career.

High school juniors and their parents also are invited to the event to learn more about the college experience or about enrolling in concurrent classes while they are still in high school.

Participants must gain admission to RSU to attend the event. Registration is required in advance by calling 343-7547 or 1-800-256-7511.
